After throwing a prima donna tantrum, Ms Lee Bee Wah later back-wheeled - “I didn’t say Antony and the coach will be sacked” and “I don’t want to be entangled in this whole issue”.

In my house, if my children were to pull such a stunt, there will be consequences. I love my children dearly but I will not accommodate lying and twisting of words - herein lies the issue of honesty, responsibility and integrity.

When contacted by ST last night, her first words were “I’m bruised”, which indicated a lack of remorse in her actions and a self righteous indulgence.

When asked if she would have done things differently in hindsight, she replied,

‘No, I don’t think there was anything wrong. Maybe the only thing is that I would not have talked to Peh Shing Huei. My intention was blown out of proportion.’

See, people, it’s all Peh Shing Huei’s fault. Of course.

I think she should zip it because the more she talks, the more she reveals the lack of integrity and responsibility.

This woman is not fit to be the president of the Pussycat Dolls Fan Club, much less our STTA and much less a MP. This is the same MP who talks about “pang sai” in parliament. How unbecoming and inappropriate, not to mention, extremely crass.

In a bid to stop the downward spiral of matters, Dr Balakrishnan, the Minister for Community Development, Youth and Sports said,

‘I’m very concerned about the way it seems to be spinning out of control because I don’t want a situation where people say things or do things which destroy relationships, relationships and partnerships which we need in order to keep Team Singapore intact and in order for us to perform at the highest level,’ he said.

I guess it is too late. 过河拆桥. The trust, relationship, partnership, faith, goodwill and morale in question have already been destroyed. Given the trigger happy tendency to fire and replace people at a whim -  and these are people who are deemed to have performed - good luck to getting your next team for London.
